There is now a fix in the release version of R, which should come out fairly
soon.  There is also a fix to recycle the lty argument, plus documentation
and an example to show how you can get multiple polygons out of a single
call to polygon() using NA coordinates.

Thanks for the bug report and suggested solution.
